Share an update
An update covers three things: what changed, what is next, and what is blocked. Your workspace already has most of it from completed tasks, initiatives and bugs in progress, pull requests, and blockers.
Share today's update
Open the Recap tab in My Work (paid plans). It lists what you completed, what is planned, and what is blocked, which is usually enough for a Slack message or a manager update. For the whole team, run a standup instead.
Ask for an update
Ask the Slack bot for a progress report, a list of blockers, or a standup summary. An MCP-connected assistant such as ChatGPT or Claude can summarize current work the same way.
Get better updates
Updates are only as complete as the captured work behind them. Connect version control and the other tools your team uses. Captured work explains how their activity becomes progress, and Share Progress compares the other update formats.
